For anyone out there searching for how to get this headset working, I have it working and followed instructions on Arch Wiki with a few modifications of my own.
This is the general process that I use on new Arch Installs to get this configured. Hope it helps others out there with the same problem.
###
# A. On New Arch Installs ensure that Bluetooth isn't started on GDM Start but on X11 start otherwise there will be problems owning the device.
# Worked 2017/04/17
###
# Install required bluetooth and pulse audio packages
sudo pacman -S pulseaudio-alsa pulseaudio-bluetooth bluez bluez-libs bluez-utils bluez-firmware
# Ensure bluetooth support is enabled
sudo systemctl stop bluetooth
sudo systemctl start bluetooth
sudo systemctl status bluetooth
sudo systemctl enable bluetooth
# Bug and possible solution: actually I found a bug in that make the headset unusable, it seems that the pulse audio module: module-bluetooth-discover works only if started after the X11 session is up. So I have a workaround.
# Edit the file:
/etc/pulse/default.pa
# and comment out (with an # at the beginning of the line) the following line (around line ~66):
#load-module module-bluetooth-discover
# now edit the file:
/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11
# and after the lines:
if [ x"$SESSION_MANAGER" != x ] ; then
/usr/bin/pactl load-module module-x11-xsmp "display=$DISPLAY session_manager=$SESSION_MANAGER" > /dev/null
fi
# add the following line around line ~32:
/usr/bin/pactl load-module module-bluetooth-discover
# This way the Pulse audio’s Bluetooth modules will not be downloaded at boot time but after x11 is started.
# Reboot computer
###
# B. Use These Instructions to Manually Get Bluetooth Setup & Connect, Pair and Trust the device via CLI.
# Gnome Control Center Bluetooth worked with X11 / GDM / PulseAudio Mod on 2017/04/12
###
# Bluetooth must be set to after GDM
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Bluetooth_headset so PulseAudio isn't captured by GDM
# Use This
pacmd ls
pacmd set-card-profile 4 a2dp_sink
# Tracks Air Bluetooth Headset
bluetoothctl

exit
###
# C. Test Configuration
###
# 1 - Identify the device
pacmd ls|egrep -i 'index:|name:|device.description'
# 2 - Switch to the device a2dp_sink instead of the default to get sound
pacmd set-card-profile 5 a2dp_sink
# 3 - Test on rhythmbox / youtube, etc...
